Recognition for the Marianas

Posted on Aug 25 2008

I read with pride in the paper about the Marianas being selected as one of the finalists for a marine monument. It is about time we were recognized for our unique natural environments.

What a beautiful gift we can give to our children. I say this as a father of eight…and soon to be nine. This is such an opportunity for my children and their children for education and jobs, while protecting our oceans.

I hear about people saying that the indigenous do not support this. Who are they talking about? Everyone I know supports this idea.
